Most relieved, of course, were the principal targets of the investigation, Producers Aaron Spelling, 52, and Leonard Goldberg, 46.

Only slightly less elated were executives at ABC who had approved the transfer of funds and ABC President Elton Rule, 63, a close friend...

...Ewing Oil headquarters is a castle in the air-almost literally. The stock shot of the office tower shows a fleecy cloud reflected on the building's façade with the surreal clarity of a painting by Magritte. Dallas realty; Dallas fantasy. The plot is a Rube Goldberg machine of the seven deadly sins, but performed and acted absolutely straight. This gives the viewer options.
